A crucial day for the Seniors awaits at Bennettswood as they look to draw level on the ladder with St.Mary’s Salesian and give themselves every chance to avoid relegation, whilst the Reserves will be looking for a more concerted effort after two straight large losses.

Two straight 100+ point losses do not sit well with Reserves coach Gerard Clarke, and a hard task awaits against a well-drilled side in St. Mary’s who have already locked away finals footy.
Thankfully, for the sake of continuity, only 3 changes have had to be made from last week’s game.
Thirds leader George Burgess is a welcome addition to the side in the backline along with Oscar Godde, whilst Mitch Lamb returns to provide his run and carry on the wing.
A positional change sees the big kicking Josh Webb moved forward to provide a threat up forward as well as the always creative James Greaves pushing further up the ground to accomodate the inclusion of Lamb.

After 10 straight losses, an opportunity for a well overdue win to create a fascinating final round awaits the Senior Animals tomorrow with four sides still in the throws of a see-sawing drop fight.
Last week’s effort against a South Melbourne side still pushing for a top 2 spot has been rewarded with no changes made to the Senior side this weekend.
This means potential VAFA Div 2 Team of the Year Fullback candidate Joden Crothers will stay at Full Forward after he snagged 2 by the lake last week.
Jem Sibley keeps his spot on the wing in the Senior set up and will look to compliment the never-tiring Matt Hill in what will be the final game played on the hallowed Bennettswood turf this season.
